The Transition from Jail to Community

Initiative

Presentation Plan

• TJC Initiative Overview• Principles of Effective Intervention• TJC Model Elements and Implementation

– Client Level– System Level

• Resources Available to You• Questions


Initiative

Why TJC Is Needed

• Jails see huge numbers of individuals– 13 million annual admissions– High levels of need (substance abuse, mental illness,

homelessness)

• Reentry knowledge base is very prison-focused• Jails face unique challenges managing reentry

– High turnover– Disparate population– High demand on limited resources


Initiative

TJC OverviewInitiated by NIC cooperative agreement with Urban Institute in 2007 to:

• Develop a TJC model to assist with implementing effective transition strategies

• Select and provide implementation assistance to TJC learning sites• Phase 1 Sites: 2008-2012• Phase 2 Sites: 2012-2015

• Conduct process and systems-change evaluation of TJC• Disseminate TJC knowledge to inform practice

nationwide• Web-based TJC Online Learning Toolkit launched April 2010

TJC Model


Initiative

Principles of Effective Correctional Intervention

1. Assess Actuarial Risk/Needs2. Enhance Intrinsic Motivation3. Target Interventions

a) Risk Principle: Prioritize supervision and treatment resources for higher risk offendersb) Need Principle: Target interventions to criminogenic (correlated to crime) needs.c) Responsivity Principle: Be responsive to temperament, learning style, motivation,

culture, and gender when assigning programsd) Dosage: Structure 40-70% of high-risk offenders’ time for three to nine months.e) Treatment Principle: Integrate treatment into the full sentence/ sanction requirements.

4. Skill Train With Directed Practice (e.g., use cognitive behavioral treatment methods)

5. Increase Positive Reinforcement6. Engage Ongoing Support in Natural Communities7. Measure Relevant Processes/Practices8. Provide Measurement Feedback Source: Crime and Justice

Institute and National Institute of Corrections


Initiative

Common Language on Concepts

• Risk– Likelihood of recidivism in the community– Can be gauged primarily using static factors (those

that do not change)– Tells a system who to target for intervention

• Criminogenic Need– Dynamic factors (changeable) related to likelihood of

reoffending– Tells a system what issues to address in a target

What Are Criminogenic Needs?Criminogenic Need Factor

Risk

History of antisocial behavior Early and continuing involvement in a number and variety of antisocial acts and a variety of settings

Antisocial personality pattern Adventurous pleasure seeking, weak self-control, restlessly aggressive

Antisocial cognition Attitudes, values, beliefs, and rationalizations supportive of crime; cognitive emotional states of anger, resentment, and defiance

Antisocial associates Close association with criminal others and relative isolation from anticriminal others; immediate social support for crime

Family and/or marital Two key elements are nurturance and/or caring and monitoring and/or supervision

School and/or work Low levels of performance and satisfaction in school and/or work

Leisure and/or recreation Low levels of involvement and satisfaction in anticriminal leisure pursuits

Substance abuse Abuse of alcohol and/or other drugs

Adapted from Andrews, Bonta and Wormith (2006), The Recent Past and Near Future of Risk and/or Need Assessment.

Initiative

Tools for Gauging Risk and Need• Screening (e.g. Proxy, LSI-SV)

– Quick and minimal resource– Risk only– Flags those needing more attention

• General Assessment (e.g. LSI-R, COMPAS, Wisconsin)– More comprehensive (and resource intensive: 45-60 minutes to

administer)– Identify risk and criminogenic needs– Basis for transition plans

• Specialized Assessment (e.g. STATIC-99, URICA, ASUS)– Covers specific areas (ex. addiction, motivation to change) in

greater detail; or– Covers specific populations (ex. sex offenders) whose risk/need

profile differs from general population

R-N-R Principles Work as a Package

Initiative

Characteristics of Systems Approaches

• Span agency boundaries• Provide overarching framework

– Organize complexity

• Involve collaborative planning and oversight• Process is emphasized• Outcome-oriented• Data-driven


Initiative

Impediments to Systems Approaches• Difficult to reconcile missions, incentives, cultures of

participating agencies• Systems change approaches often move slowly

– And sometimes should move more slowly still

• Skepticism regarding risk and need-based decision-making

• Data limitations– Doesn’t exist– Limited analytical capacity– Inability to look across data systems


Initiative

System Elements

• Convening authority• Oversight and guidance• Pushing a systems culture

Initiative

TJC Can Start from Different Points

• Nascent: Little or no jail reentry activity exists– Priority: Identify a starting point

• Fragmented: Jail and community reentry activity in place, but little coordination or communication– Priority: Establish collaboration and fill gaps

• Unbalanced: Reentry work in either jail or community much more advanced than the other– Priority: Build up other side and ensure coordinated approach

• Mature: Reentry system in place– Priority: Focus on maintenance and continuous improvement

• Uncertain: Not sure what’s in place– Priority: Fact-finding and information-gathering
